Village of Calumet has New Boss

A new boss will enter the office for the Village of Calumet very soon. Last night at the village’s council meeting members would first discuss the terms of the new contract for the incoming manager. Those terms will look similar to the previous village manager. Councilor Elise Matz had this to say of Amber Goodman,

I have to say though of Amber’s application, she provided a resume. And she has such a depth of experience in doing what she does, you know shes been managing, or an Administrative Assistant for a long time. I mean when she was a Facility manager, she was there for seven years. – Elise Matz

and Kelly Beattie.

The other thing I would say though, Kelly does have direct government experience, but he was working with the city of Hubbard, which is a large and complex municipal government. As opposed to here, where I do think we need someone who can be a jack-of-all-trades. – Elise Matz

All council members were in agreement that both felt qualified for the position, even with the different forms of experience. The position of Village Manager will be extended to Amber Goodman. Goodman currently serves as an Administrative Assistant with Portage Pointe. Contract negotiations will start over the next few days if the offer is accepted.
